Meets Friday, 7-9 p.m. and Saturday, 9 a.m.-4 p.m.The Japanese art of Kintsugi takes broken pottery and repairs the cracks with gold. These restored bowls, formerly considered worthless, become treasured items of great worth and beauty. We will use this art as a symbol of our spiritual life. Our wounds and failures can easily harden into shame and regret. Yet, if we look at our lives through the eyes of grace and compassion, our painful experiences can be transformed into great sources of inspiration, beauty and wisdom. The retreat will include time for creative expression, presentation time, individual reflection and small-group processing.
